Michael Goodwin, writing in the New York Post this weekend --

"The most important and celebrated military leader of our time has fallen from the sky with a thud that is shaking all of Washington. His personal life and career are in tatters, but that is not the whole story. Not by a long shot.

The timing of his departure is also more than a little curious. How convenient for President Obama that, the White House says, he was ôbriefedö on the matter only Thursday -- two days after he won re-election.

Is that when he first learned of it? Having a scandal of this magnitude emerge during the campaign would have been bad for the president, so he and his team had a motive for delaying the resignation.
